If you had access to a time machine, what concerts would you go back to see?


2020 was the first year of my adult life that I did not attend any concerts. I'm sure that I'm not alone in this unfortunate situation. So, this got me thinking about both the concerts that I "missed" (could've gone, but something went wrong) or concerts I "wished I'd had the chance to see."

Plus, I thought this would be a good bookend to the ongoing (and excellent) thread about "the worst concert you ever saw."

1967, I was in the Navy stationed at NAS Lemoore in the Central Valley outside of Fresno California. Me and a buddy were planning on going to a concert and he had the transportation. A few hours before we were going to leave he informed me that he couldn’t go because his girlfriend insisted she spend the weekend with her. The concert was called Monterey Pop. To this day I’m still pissed!

The second concert I would go back for I actually saw.  My Navy buddy from above told me about a band he heard about that was going to be at a small club in Santa Barbara Ca..  He  said he had heard they were really good and the black guy “made the group”.  I don’t remember the name of the club but the band was called “The Jimi Hendrix Experience”.  Can you imagine hearing Foxey Lady in a small club?  What a night!
